The reported event could not be confirmed, since the device was not returned for evaluation and no other evidence was provided for investigation.A device inspection was not possible since the affected device was not returned, and no other evidence was provided for investigation.More detailed information about the complaint event such as x-rays, patient records and date of implant as well as the affected device must be available in order to determine the root cause of the complaint event.However, based on the complaint event, the probable cause can be attributed to patient related issue as the event suggests the patient slipped many a times after surgery.The failure was probably not caused by a deficiency of the product but is rather linked to patient factor.A review of the device history for the reported lot did not indicate any abnormalities.No corrective actions are required at this time.No indications of material, manufacturing or design related problems were found during the investigation.A review of the labeling did not indicate any abnormalities.If the device is returned or if any additional information is provided, the investigation will be reassessed.
